Nasboi Calls Out Police Officer for Requesting Money Transfer to Betting Account
Comedian-turned-musician Nasboi has publicly accused an unnamed police officer of asking him to send money directly to a Sporty Bet account. The incident was shared by Nasboi himself during his ongoing nationwide tour on social media platform X.
As part of his 36-day kneeling tour across Nigeria’s states to secure a verse from singer Davido, Nasboi recounted the unusual encounter with the officer. When the policeman stopped him and requested money, Nasboi explained he had no cash on hand. The officer then reportedly asked him to transfer funds to his Sporty Bet account instead.
Expressing disbelief and frustration, Nasboi questioned, “What on earth is wrong with the Nigerian police? I told him I didn’t have cash, and he said, ‘Just transfer it to my Sporty.’”
This bizarre demand highlights some of the odd and troubling interactions citizens sometimes face, even from those meant to protect them.
